Benedict Cumberbatch Jokes About his Possible Star Wars Involvement.

star wars

Yesterday Benedict Cumberbatch was at the Conan O’Brien show promoting his new movie The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. Of course tha Star Wars questions were not spared…


Conan asked, about the rumors that Benedict would like to be in Star Wars and that he is lobbying J.J. Abrams.

Cumberbatch humorusly dodged the subject saying that he was leaving casual messages on J.J.’s phone “as a light saber”. But probably Abrams thought he was getting bad cell reception. 
Later Benedict added that he went to a chat show and auditioned for Chewbacca and did his magic hence traumatizing Harrison Ford who was also at the audition.


You can see the video below though the sound quality is very low:

    They know how badly we want real info. I feel like we’re all just getting fucked with now. Maybe this whole Episode 7 thing is just a big joke…

    I really hope he isn’t cast. So what’s worrying to me, is that he opened his answer with “It started with me—“. What do you mean ‘started’? I mean he is basically saying that he has ‘finished’ persuading JJ ..

    That buzzing noise was neither a light saber nor cell phone static but rather the incessant hum of Benedict’s trusty butt plug…who gives a rat’s ass about your poor attempt at humor during a talk show rant…another rich loser
